211. To ask the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the measures she will take to intervene in a case where a State-funded organisation (details supplied) has refused to pass on a WRC pay-increase adjudication to a long-term low-paid employee, to ensure the worker is paid the wage the WRC has adjudicated they deserve and that the authority and principles of the WRC are not undermined by a State-funded organisation.

I understand that Cobh Heritage Centre is owned by Cork County Council.? Neither I, my Department, nor any of its agencies have any responsibility for the oversight and governance of the Heritage Centre. The matter raised is a legal matter and accordingly, it would not be appropriate for me to comment.

My role and that of my Department lies primarily in the area of national tourism policy development and in securing resources to assist the tourism agencies, Fáilte Ireland and Tourism Ireland, in implementing that policy.
